The Chellanji bridge that connects the tourist hotspots of Varkala beach and Ponmudi hills is set to witness a host of beautification activities that could transform it into a tourist attraction.
The 148.25-metre-long bridge at Nanniyode enables tourists visiting Varkala and Ponmudi to proceed along Attingal, Venjaramoodu, Nanniyode and Vithura instead of taking a detour via Nedumangad. It has been constructed across Vamanapuram river and links the Nanniyode and Kallara grama panchayats.
Vamanapuram block panchayat has chalked out a strategy to develop the bridge and adjacent areas as a full-fledged halting place for tourists passing through the region.
